The Dingwall slant looks nice. jacko Senior Member Username: jacko Post Number: 1923 Registered: 10-2002 Posted on Thursday, September 18, 2008 - 4:24 am:    Boy that's Black Danno!. If it was mine, I'd slap on a set of DR Black Beauties to finish it off.

It was delivered a day early and I have it here at work. I sent a student to get it from the UPS truck.Who wants extra credit? Amazing and in tune out of the case as usual. Again a fantastic job by the artisans at Alembic. By the way it is between short scale and medium, 31. something I believe. tbrannon Senior Member Username: tbrannon Post Number: 894 Registered: 11-2004 Posted on Thursday, September 18, 2008 - 9:49 am:    Cool stuff Danno. I'd be curious to hear your take on those angled pickups- in terms of how they sound compared to any other medium/short scale Alembics you have experience with. I'm guessing that somewhere along the line you've owned or played another mahogany bodied medium scale 5'er. How do those angled pickups affect the tone (in your opinion)? basstard Advanced Member Username: basstard Post Number: 225 Registered: 3-2003 Posted on Thursday, September 18, 2008 - 12:38 pm:    So cool! Love the chrome hardware, it really fits! funkyjazzjunky Intermediate Member Username: funkyjazzjunky Post Number: 195 Registered: 5-2007 Posted on Friday, September 19, 2008 - 12:26 pm:    I like the angled PUs daveski Junior Username: daveski Post Number: 44 Registered: 10-2003 Posted on Friday, September 19, 2008 - 1:00 pm:    OOOHHHH Superb!!! olieoliver Senior Member Username: olieoliver Post Number: 1937 Registered: 2-2006 Posted on Friday, September 19, 2008 - 1:03 pm:    DUDE, they put the PUP's in crooked. LOL Looks too cool for "school" Danno! OO (edited for error in spelling, Danno may teach History but I bet he takes off for grammer and spelling)LOL (Message edited by olieoliver on September 19, 2008)TWICE, 'DA PUTZ!

I actually teach, US1, US2, World History, Alg 2. Geometry, Chemistry, Biology, Earth Science, Transition, English Lit, Business Math. and of course life lessons to emotionally disturbed teens. Makes me perfectly qualified to be in a band as a bass player. It takes patience to deal with other musicians. I have been flaxxed in the past BTW. bkbass Intermediate Member Username: bkbass Post Number: 176 Registered: 11-2003 Posted on Monday, September 22, 2008 - 11:25 am:    Congradulations Danno, another beauty for sure. It appears from the camera angle that the sustain block is a little more generous on this one. Is it oversized? Bet'll sustain for weeks.
